Island Bites — Restaurant in New York

After weeks of seeing their Grand Opening sign I visited the small but cozy takeout Caribbean restaurant, Island Bites and was immediately glad I did.

The woman behind the counter greeted me with a hello and told me she would help me momentarily because she was assisting another customer. No worries, it gave me time to scope out the place. It’s clean and organized. The food is displayed in a hot station so you can see what you want before ordering, and everything looks so good.

My neighborhood been changing eateres and places to get food on the go, so when Islands Bites opened up I was kinda skeptical , to start with. I looked over the menu and all sounded foreign to me. But boy oh boy , when I stepped into the restaurant for the first time ,I was so pleasantly surprised by the people who serve you as well as the food.
